Damn that thing is a lunker! Unfortunately CT is not really known for producing huge bass, but they're out there.
everything's bigger in Texas...

One of the biggest bass I ever caught was caught in Moodus. Caught him on a topwater rattler in the moonlight. They are out there.Quote:

I may have developed a slight addiction to throwing bass poppers on a 3wt this weekend.

Here's a video of the smallmouth run in Vermont. Some big smallies run up from lake champlain.
Nice vid!!!
Prior to this afternoon the Bottlewoman had not only been skunked this year, she had not even had a bite.
Pretty nice bass she "landed" on the first hit of the year!!!!

Cookie cutter largemouth. Boated 8 fish over 2hrs. Southern VT. Best part is tandem kayak day with 15yr old son!
Not a big bass by any standards but the take was awesome. Caught in northern NJ in the middle of August.

Not the same bass you're talking about but they are bass. Caught about two weeks ago in the waters off NYC.

You really kill em from that kayak. I like the beaver dam in the back of the pic.
Bucketman ftw!
Got out for a few hours last weekend, nothing worthy of pics but good to catch a few. Maybe meet up this weekend, WL (aka snake pond) possibly?
Yes, that's a possibility. Have not been out there yet - as you know, best without a lot of wind, especially if it's coming out of the North. LMK if you decide to head South. Still have not seen them on their beds?!
Winds look pretty tame both days at this point, most likely Sunday but I'll let you know. Warming temps should have them bedded sometime very soon I would guess. The ones I caught were still in "deeper" water suspended just over cover but that's typical on SP.
Have actually been catching them pretty shallow meself.Quote:

Sweet! I saw that a few weeks back and was intrigued but didn't "jump", enjoy.
Probably can't swing Sat. but it's possible.
Things are heating up Bottle, here is the biggest of last week's catches while on vaca in the nek. A handful of decent smallies and a few good sized pickerel but this was by far the most photo worthy.

How'd your charter trip up north go btw?
